Cynnig Cydsyniad Deddfwriaethol Atodol ynghylch y Bil Swyddi Cyhoeddus (Atebolrwydd): Sesiwn dystiolaeth gyda’r Dirprwy Brif Weinidog ac Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet dros Newid Hinsawdd a Materion Gwledig
Okay. I'm just wondering, then, if I could just ask you, in terms of the financial implications of clause 11, if it is extended to devolved matters, is that something that you have a revised assessment in relation to?

Yes, and I suppose it’s double jeopardy if you might face a situation where someone is facing, potentially, prosecution on the same facts, though with different elements and context. So, is that something that you're aware of as an issue?

Okay. I'm grateful to you. Just returning to the issue that the Chair also touched upon, with the parallels and overlaps between the provisions around misleading statements in the Senedd accountability Bill and these provisions—I accept, obviously, the…

I'd be grateful for that, but I’m just wondering on a purely factual level: has this question of privilege been raised with UK Ministers either at official or inter-ministerial level already?

Thank you for that clarification. Notwithstanding that, and obviously the Government, through tabling the new UK Government amendment 40, has indicated, in the UK Government, what their intention is. Welsh Ministers are, even as currently formulated, one of…

So, just to return to the earlier question that the Chair gave you in relation to the LCM, is it your intention to submit the LCM based on the Bill as it currently is, where clause 11, therefore, only at the moment because that Report Stage amendment has not…

Diolch, Cadeirydd. I'd like to return, if I may, to clause 11 in the Bill, which relates to the new offence of misleading the public. And just to return to this question of the LCM, am I correct in thinking that the Government amendment that extends the ambit…

Cynnig Cydsyniad Deddfwriaethol: Y Bil Oedolion Terfynol Sâl (Diwedd Oes)
Rwy'n edifar—rwyf wir yn edifar—am y ffaith bod gofyn i ni benderfynu ar y cynnig cydsyniad deddfwriaethol hwn heb y cyfle ehangaf i graffu ar ei oblygiadau i Gymru. Fel yr ydyn ni wedi clywed, mae dros 1,000 o welliannau wedi'u cyflwyno yn Nhŷ'r Arglwyddi…

Bydd Plaid Cymru yn cefnogi’r cynnig yma heddiw, er ein bod ni yn parhau i gredu mai’r ffordd orau o gyflawni amcanion cyffredinol y Bil hwn yng Nghymru fyddai drwy ddatganoli pwerau cyfiawnder a phlismona yn llawn, fel a gefnogir gan gyfoeth o dystiolaeth…

I was just going to say that I think it may be useful that Gareth does that work. And I think, possibly, we can return to this in our further discussions later. I think a general point I would make is that we've heard the proposers of the Bill saying that…

Chair, I was wondering if I, through you, could ask our clerk to provide any advice they are able to share in relation to this, really, the very issue that Alun raises, why—. Because we do have some time available to delay, to some degree, the decision, which…

Could I just come in there? Because I think it's obviously a very pertinent question that Alun raises, but there are at least a number of amendments that I'm aware of that relate more generally to the question of devolution itself. There are amendments, which…

I agree. Can I just say I entirely agree with that? I think it's unnecessary as well, given that we have some time available to at least give us a greater opportunity of seeing if there will be further progress, which would give us a better a context within…

Thank you, and thank you, Counsel General, for dealing in detail with the amendments in this group. I think it's fair to say that, sadly, we haven't been able to find consensus on these particular amendments. There are areas of legitimate disagreement between…

It's not a unique proposal. It's analogous, really, to structures that other parliaments have put in place for exactly the same reasons. There are certain categories of cases that are not appropriate, in order to maintain public trust, for example, in order…
